The Democratic Socialist Platform Echoes the Madness of the Khmer Rouge

Privatization means theft, majority of people understand it, so they elect socialists. People has no choice, sorry.

 

and when middle class go to the hospital they become poor.

 

That is why a hospital charges me 15 bucks for an aspirin. It is a stupid system

 

Yeah because if they built a factory in the US they could apply Taiwanese law in it.

 

If they built a factory in the US they could go above the minimum the law dictates.

It’s idiotic to claim that Foxconn has no choice but to have inhumane conditions at its Chinese factories. It’s even more idiotic to claim they are forced to continue using those factories knowing they are inhumane.

 

Well, we could shift the burden of medical bills to the taxpayers. Either way, someone has to pay the bills. Medical care will never be “free”.

 

That’s a distorted view of reality.

 

Medicare and Medicaid pay about 20 cents on the dollar, so everyone else has to make up for what they don’t pay.

 

Dude...that is due to all the Bill's being written off

And think for a minute....if doctors do not profit from medicare....why ever accept it?

 

They don’t profit off Medicare. They make it up with their other patients. They accept Medicare from their long-time patients who get old.

 

No they dont. They accept new Medicare and Medicaid patients every day. For some it is the majority of their practice.

Sorry dude

 

AFTER the left took over. Things didn't start to get bad (unless you were a capitalist but that was intentional) until Chavez got cancer.

 

I think the socialists proved to be like socialists everwhere - bad managers of production

They relied entirely on oil and then they did not even run the oil business correctly

 

It is not free, the problem is that republicans wants to steal money not only from the government but also from the pockets of middle class. That is a problem with the republican party.
When they suggest to privatize something, that actually means they want all the money from the government plus the permission to rob middle class.

 

It is not true, the China is a socialist/communist country, it is doing very well.

 

Politically china is a communist dictatorship

But economically it follows the fascist model of limited private ownership but tight government control

 

So, socialism has nothing to do with how rich the country is and whether people have decent life over there.
Venezuela is a bad example of socialism, because their economy is destroyed by the USA.

 

In chinas case socialism is not the reason they are progressing

Venezuaela is a classic example of socialism in a dysfunctional society

Which America is becoming with so many immigrants and illegal aliens from 3rd world cpuntries

 

Capitalism: Your life is yours, live it.
Socialism: Your life is ours, obey.

 

what is better government slavery or private slavery.
In my opinion private slavery is the worst.
republican ideal is a government protected private slavery.

 

It is much better for any individual to shift the burden of medical bills to the taxpayers.
That way taxpayer will have at least some influence on the government.
Currently, people have no word to say, because health care management is private.

 

Then you should leave the US

 

This is freaking hilarious

 

In a private market, you can choose your insurance company and the plan for you.

With government insurance, there’s far less choice and control.

 

No slavery? Not an option? Odd, isn’t it?
And no, it isn’t “rule or be ruled”; it’s “live free or die”.
